What was the portable in the movie "Lucky Lady"?

I'm sitting here watching "Lucky Lady" from 1975. I saw the movie with my Dad when I was a teenager, so it has some bittersweet memories for me. Anyway, the film is set in 1930, and at one point a portable appears, and I was wondering if it was real, and what brand it was.

It has a hexagonal case and looked a bit like a hatbox. It had a label under the lid, but I couldn't make it out. The case looked like it was covered in faux alligator, and it had a detachable horn. There was no place to store the horn, so I suspect that it's a genuine portable that got "dressed up" to look more convincing by having a horn attached. I just think that because the case had room for an internal horn, and I can't believe that any company would provide an external horn portable without providing a space to store the horn.

Sound familiar to anyone?

Shocking picture quality, but here it is.
It looks like a Euro machine to me, although the horn looks very Edison. I think the machine is right, but it should have a different horn. There was most likely a matching case in which the horn was transported in.

Well, having a case for the horn would at least make sense. I mean, how portable can a machine be if one has to schlepp some horn around with the one hand while carrying the machine with the other?

Thanks for the attaching the photo!
